Never really used the feature so I didn't notice its omission in iOS 16. One of the first things my Dad noticed was that the live photo of our dog he has as the lock screen image no longer plays. I don't understand the need to kneecap certain features in favour of other ones. Surely there's a different way they could have thought up for changing your home screen. Also, with the new subject removal feature in "Photos" Live Photos have become much harder to watch. You need to specifically tap on a part of the photo that isn't the main subject. I'm starting to think Live Photos won't survive the next iOS update.

They added a whole lock screen customisation menu, why is there no "LIve" option like there used to be for "Perspective Zoom" circa iOS 9?
